Chapter 17 [All Rejoice]
When Yan Baihu performed the "assessment" again, his scene was already very different from before.
Originally, every time he had a meeting, the entire political hall was empty, and Yan Yu and several others were stuffy, and they couldn't beat a fart with a stick, but now, Wang Lang and his subordinates came one after another, and before the formal meeting began, they chatted separately, which was quite lively.
Of course, this is also because Yan Baihu has not appeared yet, and they have just been released, and they are originally colleagues and friends, so naturally they have a lot to talk about. It was also for this reason that Yan Baihu deliberately postponed it, and arrived late at about nine o'clock in the morning, accompanied by Yan Qing, and entered the political affairs hall.
And as soon as he came, the whole atmosphere was really stagnant, and it was quiet in an instant.
Sitting on the main seat, Yan Baihu was not in a hurry to speak, but carefully examined it, which made him feel strange, and a little dissatisfied that he found that Wang Lang and his original subordinates were all neatly seated in a row on the left-hand side.
This made Yu Quan, whom he had always valued a lot, a little embarrassed, sitting alone on the right hand side, looking isolated.
As for Yan Yu and Yang Feng, because they had already led the troops out, they did not come to this meeting.
Although he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, Yan Baihu was also silent, and then looked at the person sitting closest to Wang Lang, if he didn't guess wrong, this person was Wang Lang's former military advisor, Yu Xuan.
By the way, the position of "military advisor" is not an official position, but it is the highest position in his power other than that of the monarch.
This is because this so-called "military advisor" is actually the mastermind of the monarch, equivalent to Liu Bei's Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao's Xun Yu, or Guo Jia's position, and its importance can be imagined.
And through the system, it was learned that Yu Tuo himself was the one with the highest intelligence value among all the talents present, so Yan Baihu naturally paid special attention.
I saw that Yu turned this person with a square appearance, and some of his personality had a beard, which was very different among the civil officials and strategists in the audience.
I opened the system in my body again, opened the historical information of Yu Translation, and found that he was also a scholar in history, especially proficient in "Yi", and he was originally Wang Lang's subordinate, and then defected to Sun Ce, and Dongwu went out of office, starting from Gong Cao, and was the county magistrate of Fuchun County, and the highest official position was only to ride the captain.
Moreover, because of his straightforward character, he was disliked by Sun Quan, slandered by his colleagues, and was finally exiled.
Yan Baihu nodded slightly, he didn't think there was anything wrong with such a straightforward character, but it was very close to his style of acting, which made him quite satisfied.
In addition, Yu Flip's stunt is also a relatively special skill, "Feng Shui", and the city to which he belongs is not prone to locust plagues, plagues and other disasters.
Although this stunt is not useful for warfare, it is very good if it is an important logistics production base, because in the event of a disaster, especially in a metropolis, the loss is not one or two.
Among the other talents, there is another person who Yan Baihu needs to pay special attention to, and this person is Hua Xin.
The reason why Hua Xin attracted Yan Baihu's attention was because his intelligence value also reached 82 points, which was only a few points less than Yu Fan, and in addition, his political value was also very high, exceeding 80 points.
In history, Hua Xin's achievements as an official are better than Yu Fan's, and he even became one of the "Tai Lieutenants" of the Three Princes.
However, from his information, Yan Baihu can also roughly understand that Hua Xin's style of acting is careful and cautious when it is good, and a little insidious if it is ugly.
This is not a bad thing, but Yan Baihu still likes to be more straightforward at present, because he doesn't have time to look around, as long as he determines the strategy, he must implement it immediately, but there is no time for him to delay.
As for the others, except for Xu Gong, who was quite cunning on the battlefield, they were all third-rate strategists or construction talents, and they were basically third-rate talents with better attributes, which made Yan Baihu very satisfied.
And after roughly reading everyone, he also had the bottom in his heart, and this was the official meeting that began, but at the beginning, he was going to set off a cannon for these people!
"Lord Wang Lang wants to start anew?" Yan Baihu asked with a smile.
Wang Lang was shocked in his heart, but in fact, he also knew it, and he really didn't have any objections, his heart was very open, and his face immediately turned pale, he left the team, and asked, "What does the lord mean?" ”
"Why are you all sitting on one side?" Yan Baihu asked directly.
"Since ancient times, civil and military have been separated, and subordinates and others consider themselves to be civil officials, so why not sit on one side?" Wang Lang was not convinced, but in fact, he felt that he had lost face and was quite unhappy.
"Really?" Yan Baihu didn't want to dig deeper, he just wanted to remind them, so he stopped at the point, but some people didn't want to end it like this.
"Lord, Yu Fan and several other colleagues, it was because of Lord Wang Lang that they agreed to join the lord's command, and Lord Wang Lang is our old master, it is normal to be close to him, why should the lord doubt it?"
But it was Yu who stood up and spoke righteously.
This made Yan Baihu stunned, and he also had a new understanding of Yu Xuan's personality of this person, and as soon as he said this, wouldn't it make him, the lord, unable to come to the stage? And for Wang Lang, there must be no good feelings.
Sure enough, as soon as Yu Flip finished speaking, Wang Lang stood up again: "Yu Flip, now that you and I are under the command of the Lord, don't mention anything about the old lord." ”
"Yu Fu doesn't mean this, just on a case-by-case basis, I hope the lord and Lord Wang will forgive me." It seems that Yu Fan is still not convinced, and has some opinions about Yan Baihu, and Wang Lang also heard it.
"Yu Flip! Since you remember that I am the old master, and the lord is now my grandson-in-law, do you dare to be disrespectful? ”
Hearing this, Yu was stunned, he was angry just now, especially when he was under house arrest before, which made him very dissatisfied, so he was angry, but he was actually a person who paid great attention to the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, and immediately understood that he had offended Yan Baihu in his words.
"Don't dare, Yu knows his mistake, please punish the lord!" Yu Chuan is also simple, after realizing his mistake, he immediately admits his mistake and does not make any excuses.
"Yu turned out to be disrespectful, please punish the lord."
Wang Lang definitely didn't want to punish Yu Xuan, but he made such a picture of pleading guilty, firstly, to retreat as advance, and secondly, to see Yan Baihu's mind.
"Hahahaha~"
Yan Baihu laughed out loud, and only stopped after a while, and said loudly: "How can I, Yan Baihu, be that narrow-minded person? ”
"Obey!"
Suddenly, Yan Baihu's face turned straight, and then he gave an order, and the others lined up one after another to obey the order.
"Ling, Yu turned into a military advisor and commanded the staff; ordered Wang Lang to shoot as the left servant and lead Zhu Cao; Ling Huaxin shot as the right servant to assist Wang Lang; Wang Su was appointed as the captain of the agricultural school and was assigned to the construction matters; Ling Yu Ji is a councillor and a consultant; Xu Gong was ordered to temporarily take the post of captain of Changshui and train the troops on his behalf. ”
"Thank you, lord!" Everyone bowed in unison.
It is also just right, under his Taishou position, that is, there are only so many official positions, so that everyone has an arrangement, if there is one more strategist, I am afraid that it will not be arranged, and then I can only be a staff member first.
In addition, in terms of military generals, there is still a lack of Xu Gong's attributes, after all, he is more inclined to civilian officials, and now he is just reluctant to let him serve as the "captain of Changshui" first, and when other generals join, he will inevitably give up this position.
And the meeting has been going on so far, but it is only just beginning, as strategists, Yu Fu will not be like Yan Yu and them, they have no opinions, they will only follow the instructions.
"Lord, Huiji City is now in ruins, please give an order to build farms and markets to restore the vitality of Huiji City." However, it was Yu Fan, who had just assumed the important position of "military advisor", who took the lead in standing up and proposing.
It is worth mentioning that although Yu Fu still had doubts about Yan Baihu just now, after he took up the position of military advisor, his loyalty increased to 90 points in an instant. And others, including Wang Lang, have increased their loyalty after the division of positions.
This also shows that as talents, they still hope to be valued by the lord, which is also human nature.
"Subordinate reconsideration." For a while, everyone led by Wang Lang agreed one after another.
In this regard, Yan Baihu was also prepared, and immediately put forward the opinions that he had thought of before, but he will not go into details, probably focusing on the construction of "markets", including the unique "fish market" of coastal cities.
As for the "farm", Yan Baihu planned to give up the construction, firstly, because the output cycle of grain is slower than that of the market, and it takes a quarter to harvest once, and secondly, he has the instruction of "merchant trading" anyway, if you need grain, you can trade with merchants.
Of course, there is one thing that needs to be paid great attention to in such an extreme strategy of building a market, that is, to control the price of grain, that is, to exchange the excess money for grain in a timely manner, otherwise, because there is too much money and grain is scarce, the price of grain will be too high.
In addition, it should be pointed out that in terms of urban construction, although Huiji City and Wu County City are both intermediate cities, there are only 15 vacant land to build, but Huiji City has many advantages over Wu County City.
The reason for this lies in the concentration of "open space".
In Wu County City, its buildingable "open space" is divided into two areas, while in Huiji City, it is connected together. If you want to maximize the output capacity of the "market", you need to make it adjacent to the "mint" and be able to get a bonus to the output.
In other words, the construction of its market is best centered on the "mint" and then built around one of them.
In this case, a whole piece of "open space" needs to be connected together to achieve this. This is where the advantage of Huiji City lies.
Of course, in addition to the proposal to develop the city's "open space", Wang Lang and his wife also put forward a series of suggestions on "public order", "recruiting talents", "foreign policy", and so on.
In this regard, as long as it is conducive to the development of Huiji City, Yan Baihu basically agrees, which also makes Wang Lang and them quite happy, after all, a monarch who can adopt their opinions is what they want most.
On the other hand, if the people who are the lord's husband are stubborn and self-serving, then as a strategist, they will be miserable.
In short, this meeting was a great joy for everyone, and to a certain extent, it also allowed Yan Baihu to win the recognition of his advisers.
