Chapter 506: Recruitment
When Xiao Yao and Xu Miao decided to conduct an attempt in Xuzhou to select talents to be officials by examination, the next day, they didn't care about having a newlywed honeymoon, and then immediately gathered people to start preparing for the examination bureau.
Although it is difficult to say that everything is difficult at the beginning, because of Xiao Yao's guidance and a large amount of silver support, Xu Miao soon had her own ideas, began to recruit a large number of talents, and began to set up the Xuzhou Examination Bureau.
And because Xu Miao's grandfather Xu Ling is not only the secretary of Chen Guoli's department, but also the number one writer in Chen Guo, so there are many students and disciples in the world, so Xu Miao set his target on these people!
When Xu Miao handed over the long list to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao was also startled, looked at the list of hundreds of people, and said in surprise: "Miaomiao, do you really want to invite so many celebrity bachelors to Xuzhou?" But I look at these names, none of them seem to know, don't we invite some great writers like your grandfather to sit in town? ”
"Both? If you can invite a third of the people above to Xuzhou, you will be very powerful! And you also want to invite some well-known writers to come to Xuzhou, aren't you afraid of being told that you are forming a gang and forming a party for personal gain? I heard grandpa say, you, the assassin of Xuzhou, have a lot of people in the court who are participating in your book every day, if it weren't for the pressure from the prince's side that Your Majesty has been resisting the pressure of the prince and continuing to reuse you, otherwise you would have been removed from your post a long time ago! Xu Miao said with a look of hatred that iron is not steel, after all, she is also Mrs. Xiao now, so she must think about her husband's future, so she kept inquiring about various news against Xiao Yao from Jinling through her grandfather.
"And do you really think that you, Xiao Shilang, are a great sage who responds to every call, and you are going to come when you invite others? And this tattered Xuzhou City, can it really be compared with Jinling City? Many of these celebrities are now also officials in the court, although the official position is not high, but after all, people are now living in Jinling City, which is the capital of Chen State, do you really think that people are willing to travel to Xuzhou? That's why I made a list of such people, so that there will always be people who are willing to come to Xuzhou! Xu Miao said with a wry smile on her face.
Xiao Yao, who was told the truth by Xu Miao bluntly and ruthlessly, said a little annoyed and angry: "I, Xiao Yao, sincerely want to invite people, do they dare not give me face, dare not come to Xuzhou?" Believe it or not, I blacklisted them, and from then on, all the goods of the General Comptoir will not be sold to them, see if they dare to be arrogant in front of me! And if it weren't for my Xiao Yao's wife recognizing their abilities, I wouldn't have given them this opportunity to come to Xuzhou to work for me! ”
"You threaten people like this, are you still sincere in inviting people?" Xu Miao rolled her eyes and said: "Don't worry, there are many people here who are my grandfather's protégés, for the sake of my grandfather's face, they should still seriously consider whether to come to Xuzhou for development, and many of them have been officials for decades, but they have not been able to get promoted in their careers, and they are also depressed, so as long as we show sincerity, we will definitely be able to invite them to Xuzhou and give them a chance to show their talents!" ”
"Sincerity? It's nothing more than silver, face and women! Then we will let Zu Yuan rush back to Jinling City, and first use silver to hit the so-called high wind and bright festival that shakes them, and the principle of indifference to fame and fortune! Then I made a big splash and told them that what they did was a thing that will last forever, and after coming to Xuzhou, I will entertain them with the highest standard! In the end, it is what they propose, as long as we can do it, then we will meet them! I'm sincere enough to do this! Xiao Yao said proudly.
"Don't think of these celebrity bachelors as philistine as you are, okay! Everyone is full of poetry and books, and they are readers with high moral character! I'll use Grandpa's name to recruit them first, and of course, your sincerity should indeed come in handy when the time comes! Xu Miao smiled proudly.
"Anyway, you are the director of the examination bureau, and everything is up to you, and I am only responsible for paying for it! After these celebrity bachelors agreed to come to Xuzhou, I asked Zu Yuan to start hyping up this exam! And we are still like the last poetry conference, we don't ask the examinees about their backgrounds, nor do we look at their backgrounds and connections, just to see if they have real work! However, this time we will not hold it in the general casino in Jinling City, but directly let them come to Xuzhou for this official selection exam! Xiao Yao nodded and said.
"However, Shiro, I'm still a little worried, if we hold the official selection exam with such fanfare, in the imperial court, will the prince's side frame us in all kinds of ways, after all, you are now the assassin of Xuzhou, holding a heavy army, in charge of the military and politics of one side, and you dare to recruit talents so openly, this is a big taboo!" Xu Miao said worriedly.
"You can rest assured about this, in the past few years, the prince should have no opponent in the court, which has led to being too lonely, so he will target me everywhere! And now I have also sent a secret letter to Your Majesty, asking for King Xing to be transferred back to Jinling City, after all, King Xing was transferred out of Jinling at the age of fourteen, and it is time to return to His Majesty's side and compete with the crown prince for favor! In this way, the crown prince can only be busy dealing with King Xing and can no longer pay attention to me, the assassin of Xuzhou! Xiao Yao said with a sneer.
"And I have written to His Majesty several times, asking him to send a large number of more officials to Xuzhou, but he only replied, now that the Northern Expedition of Chen has just ended, it is the time to recuperate, so people must be employed everywhere, and money must be used everywhere, so the military and political affairs of Xuzhou must be solved by myself! To put it bluntly, Your Majesty will not give money to Xuzhou, and will not give people to others! If he is unkind first, then don't blame me for being unjust! So this election exam is my solution! Xiao Yao said indignantly.
"In fact, Your Majesty treats you so unfairly, it can't be because you are too sharp, you have become a state assassin with military power at a young age, and your army is an invincible army, you were only a small general before, and there are many people on it who can suppress you! But since the first battle of Huaibei, you have become the leader of all the generals in the army, and now in the Chen army, except for Wu Mingche, the governor can suppress you, other generals dare not despise you at all! I don't even dare to fight against you! Xu Miao said analytically.
"And you also bargained with Your Majesty, and used the incident of attacking Northern Xuzhou to blackmail Your Majesty to fulfill his promise and appoint you as the assassin of Xuzhou! This incident must have made Your Majesty very unhappy, and at the same time, Your Majesty has begun to be jealous of you! Shiro, you really have to keep a low profile in the future, otherwise those political enemies in the court will definitely attack you wildly, and when the time comes, everyone will be angry, so even if Your Majesty loves talent and can endure your arrogance, it will not be able to defeat everyone's mouth, and it will be bad for you! Xu Miao frowned and said worriedly.
"Shiro, we have married in the church, I will become your wife, as the so-called marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, no matter what you want to do in the future, I will follow you and support you! But you also have to think more about our relatives who are around you, and don't let us worry too much! Xu Miao said affectionately.
"Don't worry, Miaomiao, after getting married, I will be a real man, I have everyone's hopes for me on my shoulders, and I also have the responsibility to protect you! So I'm not going to do things that I'm not sure about! Xiao Yao said firmly.
