And then there are the more than 50 'orthodox' scholars, they are not the children of the Wang family but only admire, and they can be regarded as hugging their thighs, most of these people are not very proud of their fame, some are just showmen, and some of them are not able to go out smoothly because they are not in the court because they are no one and are not good at flattery, or they are just idle petty officials and only eight or nine grades, so they are not very ambitious, so they are willing to accept the invitation of the Wang family.

In the eyes of these scholars, 'cooperation' with Liangshan is equivalent to a double-edged sword, the good thing is that they can finally realize their dream of becoming an official, and the bad thing is that this official position is not issued by the imperial court after all, and it is somewhat unjust.

This or a big gamble to describe it is not an exaggeration, if Liang Shan can develop smoothly, then there is no problem with their official position, no one dares to question it, but if Liang Shan is killed by the imperial court one day, then they will be on the blacklist of the imperial court, leaving a stain, don't think about taking a career in this life, if it weren't for the face of the Wang family, I'm afraid that even one tenth of the people Du Jia would not be able to recruit.

Although these scholars are inferior to the children of the Wang family, they are also rare talents for Du Jia at this stage, these middle and low-level officials are also very lacking now, and the influence is still great, this is like making a table of the top Manchu and Han full banquets, bird's nest bear's paws are naturally important to pull shark fins, but those side dishes such as rice and soup are also indispensable, the children of the Wang family are like the former, and these scholars are the latter.

So when Wang Jiazhi invited those scholars under the Wang family to come over, Du Jia was very happy, everyone personally talked a few words and promulgated official positions on the spot according to their age, expertise, education, temperament, knowledge, etc., the lowest is also the seven-grade Zhengyin county order, and the highest is even the five-grade observation envoy, the servant, the general judgment, etc., so that these people are surprised and abnormal.

And they don't have to worry about the common problems in officialdom such as vacant positions or idleness, now Du Jia has more than 20 counties in three prefectures, and a large number of vacant official positions, they can go to take office at any time.

Du Jia was in a very good mood at this time, and smiled at these readers: "The rankings are all great talents, and these positions may still be a little condescending, but it doesn't matter, as long as everyone works hard, it is definitely not a problem to improve in the future, and there is room for improvement." ”

A middle-aged man who was appointed by Du Jia as an observer envoy from Mengzhou to assist Wu Yong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he boldly asked: "Lord Du, the lower officials have the courage to ask, what kind of development do you plan to develop in the future?" Isn't there a plan to occupy the entire Qingzhou? ”

Everyone's eyes were suddenly focused on Du Jia's body, and the readers' questions were also gentle, this lifter was ostensibly asking Du Jia's future development goals, but in fact, he was more concerned about their upside, if Liangshan had only had these three mansions, in other words, the Fu Yin who had done the five grades would come to an end, especially for this lifter, there was only room for one step further up - although this position was already a high position that most people dreamed of, but the people's hearts were insufficient, Who wouldn't want to go further, even if they could only think about it.

But if Liangshan can take the entire Qingzhou, it will be very different, first of all, there will be eight more official positions of the prefecture, that is, eight mansions, and then there will be Qingzhou Prefecture Pastor - this is the rule of millions of people, from the second rank of the super high-ranking officials, of course, in their opinion, this position is naturally Du Jia's own, but there will still be many more three or four rank official positions, then they don't all have a chance?

Du Jia smiled secretly in his heart, but he replied seriously: "Lord Xu's words are wrong, why can we only be limited to Qingzhou?" Why can't we go to Xuzhou, Yuzhou, and Jizhou around here? ”

Everyone mentioned that the first half of the sentence was disappointed, and after listening to the second half of the sentence, they immediately became ecstatic, all of them looked at each other excitedly, and their wheezing involuntarily became heavy, what 'calm and calm, indifferent and bright' The words of the sage were also left behind for a while, most of them have desires, but they are just different, some people like to eat meat, some people like to drink, some people like money, but for these scholars, there is nothing more attractive to them than official positions.

This is no exception even for Qing officials, many Qingliu officials can live a simple life, not subject to money, and even take pride in a light life, but for the famous history, I am afraid that there are few people who do not value it, how many people have been diligent and innocent all their lives, and what they want is to finally be able to be crowned a high-ranking official, and then get a 'Wen, loyalty, Zheng' and other nicknames.

Therefore, Du Jia also expressed full understanding and tolerance for the gaffes of these scholars, for him, the superior, it is right for the people below to have desires, so that they can do things for themselves, if the officials are all masters like Confucius and Laozi, it will be troublesome, all of them regard the name of merit as dung, as long as they are quiet and inactive or write books and establish schools, then who will do these mundane chores?

Du Jia was still afraid of scaring them, so he didn't say that his real goal was to overthrow the Great Song Dynasty, otherwise he was afraid that these scholars would not be able to accept it for a while, and it was a little too early to mention this to them now, and they would naturally understand later, if everything went well.

But now Du Jia's promise has made these people excited, and they are all full of energy, and they can't wait to show their talents immediately, after all, the people all over the world are still 'sneering' at Liangshan' or' Wait and see' state, and when Liangshan grows and grows in the future, many people will inevitably flock to it, but they have already made some achievements here, and when the time comes, they will have a great advantage in terms of qualifications and merits, and those people will not be able to compare with them even if they are bullish.

Thinking that many of their current classmates and brothers, even teachers and seniors, and other people who are equal to or even better than them, will have to work under them in the future, everyone's eyes have become extremely enthusiastic, they choose Liangshan now because of the Wang family's matchmaking, but on the other hand, it also shows that they are depressed now, and I am afraid that it will be the other way around when the time comes, and some vindictive people have even begun to plan how to laugh at the people who have mocked and ridiculed and even suppressed them over the years.

Then I don't know who said first: "Lord Du, without further ado, then the lower official will go to the post first to report, and if you can go over earlier, you can do more things." ”

After saying that, he left in a hurry, everyone suddenly realized, and left one after another, and only the people of the Wang family were left in the room in an instant.
