"Now that Jinyang has been decided, wars are still frequent, it is not appropriate to make a big move in the official ranks, and the old system can be used in general, or there may be changes, you look at it, as long as you say the ins and outs, I will not be sure ......."

Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo were sitting on their knots, listening carefully to what Li Po said.

This is the final word, and after a few days of deliberation, these are the words they want.

And these words, perhaps in the next few years, will gradually become the custom of the officialdom of the two states, and they must be remembered word by word, and after they go back, they must also be carefully pondered, because they still have to be said to the people below.

Regardless of ancient or modern times or in the future, if an official does not have such a mentality, he will not be able to go far in the officialdom.

In the flickering lights, Li Po thought deeply and was tired, but he still had to calm down, comb through the words in his heart, and then declare it in his mouth, those jokes in the morning had long disappeared from his mind.

At this time, make some cynical game words to lighten up the atmosphere? By the way, such a major event as the official system will be decided?

Forget it, he really doesn't have that kind of "eloquence", and these two in front of him are definitely not easy to fool, they will never think you have a lot of humor, if you don't respect them, they won't respect you, and the consequences may be very serious.

"However, the system of recommendation has been in the ascendant for hundreds of years, and there are many drawbacks, you and I have seen it with our own eyes, and we have to check it."

"I thought that under my rule, if there is a recommendation, it must be recorded, but the person who is recommended is involved in rebellion, bribery, etc., and the person who recommended it needs to be convicted."

"Second, it is said that the virtuous do not avoid relatives, hey, there are many selfish people in the world...... Therefore, under my rule, relatives should avoid this suspicion, and they should not recommend brothers, sons, nephews, and other blood implications, and once they commit it, the favoritist must be guilty of a serious crime in his family. ”

"Thirdly, if you want to set up a workshop in the governor's mansion, the new officials have to give me a trip to the governor's mansion, and my virtue and ability must be examined in person, and then I can rest assured.

Three times in a row, the person who was recommended failed to pass this level, and this person's vision will not be successful, and he will not be able to recommend others in the future. ”

Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo both nodded again and again, and these are not surprising.

The recommendation system is the foundation of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system, and it is also one of its most important components.

Until the early years of the Great Sui Dynasty, after hundreds of years, in fact, the development has been very perfect, Li Po said, just on it, clearly set a few rules.

These rules are actually part of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system, which is the threshold of the recommendation system.

It's just that since the dynasties, most of them are just unwritten latent rules, some people abide by them, and some people ignore them.

This kind of unwritten rules, the people who abide by them are getting fewer and fewer, and the gate valves are gradually connected with each other, and under the deep-rootedness, these rules have become the sword of the gate valve clan.

If these conditions can really be implemented in the two states, then it will also be able to plug some loopholes in the recommendation system and make everyone have scruples.

But it did not touch the interests of the gate lords too much, so it can be said that this is a relatively moderate policy of governance.

What Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo agree with is definitely not these conditions put forward by Li Po, what they agree with is Li Po's attitude.

The so-called governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, in fact, this is the truth.

Vigorous and resolute, sometimes it often represents not efficiency, but quick success, which is not a good thing when governing the government.

Li Po looked at the two guys with a relieved face, and pouted in his heart, for him, it didn't matter what system he was, all he wanted was stability.

The imperial examination system has the potential to cause chaos, so it is abandoned, and the recommendation system can stabilize a place like Jinyang, so use it.

A multiple-choice question that is very easy to do, plus some prerequisites, so that these ethnic groups in Jinyang should not be too proud.

In general, he himself understands that these things he proposed can be said to be lackluster, but as long as it can make everyone feel at ease, then he might as well do it......

But then again, compromise is compromise, and he doesn't want these Jinyang clans who have a persistent pursuit of official positions to be too comfortable, Li Po's eyes rolled, and he suddenly slapped his face, and said: "Speaking of which, I think of one thing." ”

"Each family has a wide range of land and property, and there are many slaves, whether it is household registration or land endowment, there are obstacles, right?"

Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo were stunned, and then glanced at each other again, and then Chen Xiaoyi nodded and said, "The manager wants to...... Follow the example of Emperor Wen, carefully check the household registration, and collect the land endowment of the big family? ”

This is talking about the merits of Emperor Wen Yang Jian, only these two items have caused the world's population and land to increase dramatically, laying the foundation for Emperor Wen's rule.

It wasn't until the end of Emperor Wen that these collapsed, and when it came to the Great Cause years, there was no need to mention it.

Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty did not care about household registration anymore, but began to levy gate valve taxes on a large scale, especially when the three expeditions to Goguryeo, Yang Guang had gone crazy, and almost half of the grain and rice collected from Jiangnan came from Guanxi and Jiangnan wealthy families.

This made them complain and completely shook the foundation of the Great Sui.

At this time, Li Po raised this matter, which made Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo's hearts rise at once, this is one of the most sensitive nerves of the family.

Emperor Wen dared to do it because he had the power to dominate the world, and everyone did not dare to disobey.

What would be the consequences if the two states did it today? Just thinking about it makes the hearts of the two of them jump.

Looking at the appearance of the two, Li Pohe laughed twice.

"I'll talk about this matter first, and I'm not in a hurry, since there is a precedent to follow, it's not something that can't be done, I've been fighting for many years, and I've seen countless tragic things, so ah, in my opinion, there's nothing more precious than food."

"And now, I see us moving around, but we don't even see a shadow of taxes...... The people in Jinyang City just want to be officials, how can they do it if they don't come up with something? ”

"You go back to discuss this matter, the small family wants to collect the land endowment, and the big family has enough food and drink, so you don't care about anything?"

"It just so happens that the Wang family is about to revise the law and let them add some provisions to the tax, hehe, even if the Wang family is the first to discuss it, well, there is no hurry, two years later, I want to see a practical strategy, and at the same time I want to hear the rumors, I don't want to hear too many objections, do you understand?"

What is there not to understand about this, Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo gave up their hands at the same time, and said one by one, "Don't worry, the manager will do his best to do this for the benefit of the country and the people." ”

One said: "The manager wants to make a long-term plan, and we dare not refuse, but I hope that the manager can treat him prudently and not be in a hurry." ”

Li Po bowed his hand in return and said earnestly: "I have heard someone say that the world is the world of the people of the world, or there is a difference between the rich and the poor, but the strength of the many wins, and the strength of the few declines, this unswerving reason." ”

"Wealthy families, I can make them rich and glorious, the common people, I will make them full of food and clothing, and everyone regards me as a home, so they can help me succeed.

"After that, if you wait for your family to prosper, it will be my family's prosperity, and if you wait for your family to be few, it will be the decline of my family......"

Speaking of this, Li Po laughed, slapped the table and said: "Cao Mengde once said, I would rather teach me to bear the world than teach the world to bear me. ”

Wen Yanbo raised his thick eyebrows, his heart was agitated, and he thought, compared with Cao Mengde, this is a great ambition.

Chen Xiaoyi stood up directly, dusted off his robe, and gave a deep salute, "The words of the manager, we must keep it in mind, the so-called soldier is a confidant who dies, and the chief manager entrusts us with a heavy responsibility, and I have no doubt about it, how dare we not bow down and die with all our might?" ”

Li Po smiled, his eyes flickered, bringing out some cunning, "Don't be like this, I'm not just talking to you, I'm saying it to the people of the two states, if there is chaos today, you come and go, there is little loyalty at all." ”

"For a long time, everyone thinks it is common sense, so how can it be done? I have a lot of people under my command, and I want them to understand that under my rule, it is not a place where you can come and go when you want......"

……………………

On winter nights, the stars twinkle and the chill invades.

Chen Xiaoyi and Wen Yanbo silently walked out of the house all the way.

Before arriving at the gate of the mansion, the servants who had been waiting there for a long time rushed up, hugged the two of them and got on the horse, and the two of them parted from afar.

So far, they haven't said a single superfluous word, but their hearts have already turned thousands of times.

In the end, they all came to similar conclusions.

Grace and power, this is probably the result that he wants.

There are too many ethnic groups in Jinyang, and they are very ungraspable, tempting, convoluting, deliberately causing chaos, arrogant, and humble, these days, they have seen countless people of all colors, etc., and they all have a deep understanding of this.

And with this conversation, the two of them have almost the bottom in their hearts, and how to grasp the balance depends on their respective talents.

On the way back to the mansion, Chen Xiaoyi breathed a long sigh of relief.

Pounding his waist, shaking his head, and sighing secretly, the years are unforgiving, if he is twenty years younger...... Not only ten years, but ten years, with the talent of this person now, it is really difficult to say where he can go.

And he Chen Xiaoyi...... It's a pity that too much time has been wasted in that damn place in the Eastern Capital.

Wen Yanbo on the other side, but ripped off his cloak and threw it to the servant, he just wanted to breathe happily now, so that the hot heart could be cold.

His only regret is that his brother has never stayed in Jinyang, otherwise, with the two of them here, the brothers are of the same heart, and they meet the master, there is no doubt that the Wen family in Jinyang will become a wealthy family sooner or later.
