Chapter 249: The Talents of Yingchuan (Part II)
"It's true that Master Lu is high-footed, but it can be regarded as polite, and the others are hard to say, after all, they just met. I haven't been to Yunzhong before, I don't know that the situation here is so difficult, it's rare to come once, stay for a while. The young man next to him replied.
The young man is already twenty-three years old, and he has studied at Yingchuan Academy for more than ten years, so it is said that there is nothing to learn. It's just that the atmosphere in the court is like this now, it's really not good to be an official, my brother is like this, and he is simply like this.
are waiting for the opportunity to see if the situation can get better one day, usually manage the clan property a little, and then travel around to expand their contacts and earn fame, most of the children of their families are like this, most of them are idle at home.
It's just that young people still feel that this is a waste of time, especially the situation in the Han states now, which is not good.
The one next to him is a friend with a seven-year age difference. At the age of sixteen, he is already very improper, and the two of them have a static personality, and they don't know how to become friends.
Let's just say that this time, the proposal to come over was also put forward by him, saying that he would take a look at the situation in the clouds and meet this Liu Taishou. The young man thought about it, and finally agreed, and he didn't want to go out, he came here as a study tour.
"Indeed, the road is bumpy, and the bones will fall apart. The most pity is that there doesn't seem to be a green building here......" The man moved his body for a moment, and then complained.
"In this place, there are not many scholars, and it is useless to open a green building, it is better to use a liao." The young man joked that there are still many business travelers passing by here in this place, and they are resting here for the time being.
Most of those who take this kind of long-distance trade route will have that kind of need, so not to mention wine and restaurants, liao is also indispensable.
"Liao is boring, Guo hasn't even reached the crown ......" The man surnamed Guo shook his head.
"Obviously, at the beginning, someone said that he wanted me to take him to see the world." The young man complained.
On the other side, Liu Tao had already met other students, three from the Xun family, but unfortunately there was no Xun Yu or Xun Yu he wanted, not even Xun Chen. The three of them are Xun Di, Xun Yan and Xun Biao, whether they are famous in history, he doesn't know.
The other students are all children of Yingchuan's big family, such as Yin Yu of the Yin family...... Hearing this name, Liu Tao was actually entangled, and his first feeling was: This guy is not dead yet?
The corpse returns to Yin, which is talking about Xun Cai, who is married to Yin Yu, and would rather be martyred than remarry. It is said that Yin Yu died of illness two years after Xun Cai got married, so was Xun Cai not married him, or was his life not over?
In addition, there is also Xinbi of the Yingchuan Xin clan, this is a cattle man, an official to a guard, and his sons and daughters are very talented. Brother Xin Ping didn't come, it should be based on the concept of not putting eggs in one basket.
Yingchuan Chen's ...... didn't come, but it was the Runan Chen family, the one who plotted to cut off the eunuchs, and as a result, Chen Yi, the son of the Chen Fan who was killed, came out of seclusion because he was pardoned by the world last year.
Yingchuan Du Shi, Du Xian, Liu Tao remembered that he had seen it before, and he seemed to have held any position under Cao Cao, but this part of the memory is too fragmentary, and I don't know his situation very well, but he should be an excellent talent.
The others are estimated to be small families, anyway, I don't feel like I've heard the name, but those who can mix with this group of people are probably also big bulls, so they came forward to greet them, and said that they would have a banquet tonight for everyone to participate in.
Everyone didn't expect that Liu Tao had already prepared a banquet, and after inquiring carefully, they learned that only a group of people came to defect during the day, so they suddenly realized. It is estimated that there is also a sense of competition, so he obviously agreed and followed Liu Tao into the city.
"Expand the scale of the banquet and set the atmosphere up!" Liu Tao returned to the mansion and directly gave an order, "Even if it is delayed for half an hour, it doesn't matter, let the guests enjoy themselves!" ”
"In terms of materials...... the head chef of the back kitchen is a little difficult.
"It's okay, there are only a dozen new places here, and the rest will be solved by the Huotou Army." Knowing what he was worried about, I explained it a little. In the current situation in Yunzhong County, if you want to eat something good, it is estimated that you can't eat it often.
"The banquet is slightly delayed for half an hour, but before that, how about everyone get to know each other first?" Liu Tao came to the hall with a group of scribes, which had already begun to be rearranged.
Ten minutes before the banquet, it was temporarily arranged, which was somewhat chaotic. Fortunately, there are only twenty or thirty people in the core, and the rest can only be in the army, or in the place where they are placed, and they will be sent to dinner by special people.
What moved Liu Tao was that both Yan Liangwen and the Yingchuan students had prepared a year's worth of food.
"As the host, I will introduce you to ......" Liu Tao saw that everyone had no objection, so he introduced the identities of all parties a little.
After all, the attendees, as well as the ministers under his command, Cai Yan was actually at the banquet.
In fact, from the beginning, everyone still cared very much about a woman in the banquet venue. Liu Tao introduced, only to know that it turned out to be a well-known Cai Dacai girl, of course, Yan Liangwen is ugly, naturally there is no way to know.
However, they are such rough people, and they are often in awe of the scribes, even if it is a woman. Not to mention, Cai Yan is not only a talented woman, she is also the chief of Yunzhong County, and she is a core official.
"Seriously, although I know very well the talents of Gongji and Ziming, how many hearsay meanings are there......" Liu Tao boarded for a moment, letting them know each other, and then looked at Yan Liang and Wen Chou, "Both, do you want to demonstrate martial arts?" ”
"I don't dare to ask for ears!" The two also knew that this was an examination school, and of course they were not afraid of the examination, so they got up one after another.
"In order to have a reference ......" Liu Tao thought for a while and looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, "Yun Chang, Yide, you guys are going to be opponents!" ”
"Yes!" The two got up and listened to Liu Tao say that Yan Liangwen was ugly, and he was also one of the best generals in Hebei, and he had long had the idea of having a fight with them, and now it was just right.
"Guys?" Liu Tao looked at the students on Yingchuan's side, and the latter had no opinion, so he went along.
On the way, Liu Tao also looked at Xun Yue by the way and asked about the identities of the thousands of people. After all, there are men and women, even if it is a boy with a few maidservants, it is understandable, and a dozen people with thousands of them can't be said.
"The first time I came to Yunzhong, the elders of the family were worried that it would not be peaceful here, so they sent some family members to protect it. In addition, I was worried that there would be a shortage of food and grass here, so I brought another batch of ......" Xun Yue was a little embarrassed when he said this.
The rest of the women probably thought that these clansmen were going to be out here, and they were worried that the population here would be insufficient, so by the way, they let those families settle here, so they sent their families over.
Speaking of which, so those women were actually the maidservants of these big families, right? After all, it is a common thing for a family to be matched with a maidservant, and the heirs and grandchildren born are also the so-called 'family children'.
can be married to the family, the appearance will naturally not be much better, so the natural appearance of the second generation is not very good. From generation to generation, it is estimated that it is difficult to improve this appearance.
From this point of view, those who are handsome are basically children of families, big families, or noble status. If you look ugly, it is estimated that the composition at home is not good. Even if you are self-taught, it is estimated that it is enough to choke.
Therefore, it is not just a matter of face to select the handsome people, but through this method, there is basically a high probability that some people who are not talented can be screened out, and pleasing to the eye is also the key.
Of course, there are exceptions, such as Guan Yu, whose family background is not so good, and his appearance and temperament are very good, which made Lao Cao fall in love at first sight and never forget it. There are also Pang Tong Zhang Song, who came from a big family, but turned out to be crooked......
"In other words, they're basically going to settle here in the clouds, right?" Liu Tao asked casually.
"It's not that they ......settled here," Xun Yue shook his head, "It's that we want to settle here, and we will buy a house in Yunzhong County, mainly around Yunzhong County, in the near future." If not, buy a piece of land to build a house. ”
Damn rich people...... I have to say that Liu Tao is really sour at this moment. I finally understand in my heart, what is the background! Let's just say that this Yingchuan Xun clan, inherited from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, is a big family for hundreds of years, and it is not surprising that the family background is rich!
However, the addition of thousands of people to Yunzhong County is also a good result. According to the previous statistics, it seems that there are still many fields that are not cultivated.
In addition, the current cultivation situation is too bad, if you can next year, I plan to improve it, such a person will work on ten or twenty acres at most, and it is difficult to be like now. In this way, more fields will be vacated.
In the courtyard, the four of them had already begun to fight, and there was no way to fight horses and archery, so they could only try to fight on foot. As Liu Tao thought, the four did not immediately distinguish the winners and losers, there were comings and goings, and there was a vague feeling of being evenly matched.
"That's how it should be......" Liu Tao sighed.
According to records, in the battle of Guandu, to deal with Yan Liang, Guan Yu used the means of sneak attack to kill him quickly, and there was no room for reaction at all; And Wen Chou didn't seem to be killed by Guan Yu, but by Cao Cao.
The prestige of Hebei Siting Zhu, it is said that it will not be killed by others so simply, it can only be said that Lao Luo needs such a cool point, and the two can only be wronged.
There is still a gap in terms of force, and the two were defeated by the two one after another after more than a dozen moves.
"Wonderful!" Liu Tao stepped forward, "The two of them are very good at martial arts, Ben Taishou is looking forward to the performance of the two, the cavalry battle and the command of the army!" ”
"The two righteous brothers of Taishou are also very powerful, and we are not good at learning, so we are really not opponents." The two also calmly admitted defeat, and did not say anything recklessly, 'Ma Zhan will definitely win'.
"The two of us are actually nothing, Hansheng is the most powerful." Guan Yu and Zhang Fei shook their heads when they heard this, and then pushed Huang Zhong out. The latter wanted to keep a low profile, but now it has become the center of attention.
Yan Liangwen was very surprised, but he didn't expect this person, who has always been very low-key, to be even more powerful. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can't beat them, let alone Huang Zhong's opponents.
And the students on the Yingchuan side are weighing. In this place in the clouds, Wenzhi is not as good as martial arts, Liu Tao has elite soldiers in his hands, and now he has strong generals, it is estimated that he can really gain a foothold here, and even make Yunzhong County rich.
On Liu Tao's side, he is more concerned about a concept. Yes, just now, Yan Liangwen was ugly, and when he called him, he used Taishou. On the Yingchuan students' side, it is estimated that it is similar.
So, one or two are considered normal expeditions...... Liu Tao sighed with emotion, to subdue these people, we still need to work hard!
